- Priebe, Jason (priebe@wral-tv.com) done spit this rhetoric:
This is a really stupid question, but I can't find any answers to it in the documentation. We are going to replace the 4GB drives in our F210's shelf with 9GB drives by manually failing the 4GB disks one at a time.
Not sure why you'd want to do that, as this would make only 4G of each of the 9G drives useable...
What he said. When a smaller drive fails over to a larger spare, the larger spare is marked down as having the same capacity as the smaller. You would end up with a shelf of 9GB drives and the usable capacity of a shelf of 4GB drives. Better off dumping to tape and restoring to a shelf of empty 9GB's.
